“You have gone too far with materialistic pursuits. It seems as though friends and family have become non-existent as far as you are concerned. Do you ever sit back and think on what you are missing in life?”

Roy had been a brilliant student both at school and university. Within a few years, he had risen to the upper echelons of the organization due to his commitment and dedication.

      There are so many times in our lives when we prioritize materialistic pursuits over family. And that’s when all the troubles begin. Thanks for stopping by :).

  2. There are many who neglect family and friends for materialistic pursuits. One must maintain a healthy balance.

      And that’s the mistake so many of us make in our lives. Without friends and family, materialistic pursuits mean nothing at all.
